Chapter 668: You Can Give It a Try Too

With a resounding crash, Ye Guan was sent flying hundreds of meters away. Around him, the starry skies turned into a void, as the power of the punch tore through the fabric of spacetime, threatening to consume everything in its path.

When Ye Guan finally came to a halt, a trickle of blood stained the corner of his mouth. His fleshy body ruptured and fresh blood gushed out continuously.

Despite the pain, there was no fear in Ye Guan's eyes as he gazed toward the distant figure of Northern Sealing Demon General. Instead, he was filled with an unwavering resolve.

He was a true warrior.

In an instant, Ye Guan's palm opened and a myriad of sword intents surged forth from within.

But at this moment, Northern Sealing Demon General’s fist came hurtling towards him once more. This was no ordinary punch. Its sheer force seemed to suppress everything in its vicinity, overwhelming Ye Guan’s Invincible Sword Intent.

Undeterred, Ye Guan pressed on, thrusting his sword forward in a direct clash again.

At their level, brute strength often prevailed over skills. And in the face of such raw power, skills mattered little.

Their clash sent shockwaves rippling through the air. Ye Guan was once again sent flying but the Northern Sealing Demon General wasted no time in launching himself forward, closing the distance between them in the blink of an eye.

Kaboom!

As the Northern Sealing Demon General rushed towards him, a colossal force bore down on Ye Guan, crushing his breath.

With a roar that echoed through the void, Ye Guan activated the Mad Demon Bloodline in him.

Boom!

In an instant, the world around them erupted into a sea of crimson red. His sword flashed through the skies with a blinding brilliance and a sword light that stretched hundreds of meters long drew past.

Bam!

Yet, it shattered upon contact with the Northern Sealing Demon General’s fist. This time, Ye Guan only retreated a few hundred meters.

Even with the Mad Demon Bloodline, it was not enough to beat the Northern Sealing Demon General.

“Bloodline power...” The Northern Sealing Demon General took careful glance at Ye Guan again.

With a defiant grin, Ye Guan uttered, “Onemore time.”

He dashed forward as a sword light again and the Northern Sealing Demon General’s brow furrowed in frustration. Ye Guan’s self healing abilities were extremely high, he should not have been able to continue moving after taking three strikes.

He did not dwell on such thoughts. With a stride forward, the Nothern Sealing Demon General gripped his right first tightly and suddenly outburst with a dazzling golden light. The light rushed into his fist and he threw it squarely at Ye Guan.

Kaboom!

As the fist struck, a thunderous clap echoed through the starry expanse, resonating like a sudden burst of lightning. The sword light shattered, sending Ye Guan hurtling through the skies once more.

But this time, the Northern Sealing Demon General refused to give Ye Guan any room. He jumped forward, ready to end it.

Yet, countered with another swift strike of his sword.

The sudden eruption of sword light caught the Northern Sealing Demon General off guard, forcing him to retreat to his original position.

Pausing briefly, the Northern Sealing Demon General glanced at the deep sword mark on his clenched fist, then turned his gaze towards Ye Guan in disbelief. "Two different bloodline powers..."

Ye Guan had activated the Mortal Bloodline too, which was now ninety percent complete.

The surge of power from his Mortal Bloodline filled Ye Guan with an indescribable sense of strength and vitality.

The Northern Sealing Demon General locked eyes with Ye Guan in the distance and grinned, "Now things are getting interesting."

With a stomp, the Northern Sealing Demon General propelled himself towards Ye Guan like a speeding bullet.

Almost simultaneously, Ye Guan vanished from sight and a streak of sword light flashing through the battlefield.

Kaboom!

The clash between them reverberated through the heavens and earth, their relentless exchanges echoing like deafening thunder.

Despite being completely suppressed, Ye Guan fought on with determination. He lacked in strength because the Northern Sealing Demon General’s cultivation realm was much higher than his. Furthermore, the Northern Sealing Demon General was a demonic beast.

Demonic beasts had raw power that was far greater than ordinary humans. Moreover, the Northern Sealing Demon General was no ordinary demonic beast. If Ye Guan used the Qingxuan Sword, he could easily break through the Demon General’s defenses but he refused to do so because he wanted a fair fight.

Bam!

At that moment, both of them were sent flying backward repeatedly and they only came to a stop after retreating hundreds of meters.

As Ye Guan halted, his entire body surged with boiling blood. Terrifying bloodline power continuously gushed forth from within him, rippling outwards in all directions.

Similarly, the Northern Sealing Divine General exuded a powerful demonic beast aura as he locked eyes with Ye Guan. Admittedly, even now, he was immensely astonished. He had never expected that this young Imperial Sovereign would possess such formidable strength, holding his ground against him for so long.

Truly unexpected!

The Northern Sealing Divine General slowly closed his eyes. He realized that prolonging the battle would only work against him. Ye Guan seemed to grow stronger with each passing moment.

Delaying any further would only disadvantage me.

Suddenly, the Northern Sealing Divine General's eyes snapped open—

Boom!

Behind the Northern Sealing Divine General, a towering divine statue suddenly materialized. This was a manifestation of his divinity.

Seeing the Northern Sealing Divine General's divine statue, Ye Guan also slowly closed his eyes. Within him, the Mad Demon Bloodline and Mortal Bloodline surged wildly, filling his entire body with a powerful bloodline power.

By now, the divine statue behind the Northern Sealing Divine General had fully condensed. Towering hundreds of meters high, it exuded a terrifying aura that dominated the starry skies.

At this moment, the entire galaxy seemed minuscule before the divine statue.

The Northern Sealing Divine General suddenly bent down, roaring angrily as he unleashed a punch. Simultaneously, the divine statue also struck out with a fist.

With this punch, the entire starry skies erupted into flames, then vanished completely.

This punch was even more powerful than any before it, its force multiplied several times over.

Suddenly, Ye Guan opened his eyes, a sea of blood reflected in their depths. With a sudden draw of his sword—

Heavenrend Quickdraw with the combined power of his two bloodlines.

Both of them had unleashed their strongest strikes.

Boom!

A raging explosion echoed out, followed by terrifying shockwaves that spread out in all directions. At that moment, the statue, about to be shattered by the force of the clash, suddenly struck out with a fist towards Ye Guan.

A final blow towards him. With this punch, the statue turned ethereal, but its power surpassed even the previous one and it was far more domineering.

Seeing this punch hurtling towards him as he retreated, Ye Guan disregarded the pain within him. With a single thought, countless sword intents surged from within him, transforming into sword lights that slashed towards the incoming fist.

At that moment, the pitch-black starry skies were engulfed by sword lights.

Countless sword lights clashed with the fist intent, tearing apart spacetime as terrifying forces transformed into shockwaves that spread out in all directions.

𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

After a long while, the storm of power gradually calmed down. At this moment, Ye Guan and the Northern Sealing Divine General were separated by thousands of meters.

One man and one beast faced each other from a distance.

Ye Guan's complexion was pale and his body resembled a spider's web of cracks. The blood from his wounds were devoured by his own bloodline.

Opposite him, the Northern Sealing Divine General fared no better. His face was drained of color and he was adorned with several shallow sword marks. Ye Guan's two bloodlines had breached his defenses.

Watching Ye Guan from afar, the Northern Sealing Divine General grimaced. It wasn't Ye Guan's bloodline power that disturbed him most, but his self-healing ability. Without it, Ye Guan would've been dead a long time ago.

This guy's impossible to kill unless I land a fatal blow

. The Northern Sealing Divine General felt helpless as he lacked the means to deliver such a strike.

Facing an Imperial Sovereign left him feeling unexpectedly powerless. Yet, he knew that the stalemate would only work against him even though Ye Guan couldn’t do much in the short term.

At that moment, Ye Guan's injuries had almost fully healed. Seeing this, the Northern Sealing Divine General's expression soured. Ye Guan shouted, "Come at me again!"

With those words, he transformed into a streak of sword light, slashing towards the Northern Sealing Divine General.

The strike was more domineering than before.

The Northern Sealing Divine General charged towards him once more. Only one of them could survive. Hesitation now would only spell disaster.

Hence, they went all out.

Ye Guan and the Northern Sealing Divine General clashed fiercely, every strike unleashing their full strength. The surrounding spacetime shattered and eventually succumbed to their relentless power.

As the battle intensified, Ye Guan's consciousness waned, but his powers soared. In the end, he matched the Northern Sealing Divine General blow for blow, no longer at a disadvantage like before.

The Northern Sealing Divine General grew increasingly desperate. Ye Guan's injuries were healing too quickly. It was abnormal, and continued combat would only exhaust him.

Defeated by an Imperial Sovereign would invite ridicule from the Northern Ancient Wilderness demonic beasts for a lifetime. The Northern Sealing Divine General couldn't tolerate that.

With this realization, he silently chanted an ancient incantation. The next moment, a seal appeared from within him.

Bam!

In an instant, Ye Guan was sent flying by the seal. It transformed into a divine light, sealing off his surroundings.

Ye Guan found himself immobilized.

It was an artifact in the Divine Dao Realm that even possessed divinity.

Seeing this, Ye Guan frowned. "Are you resorting to external help?"

The Northern Sealing Divine General stared back and stated. "You can do the same."

After a moment's contemplation, Ye Guan responded, "I was hesitant at first, but since you insist..."

He summoned the Qingxuan Sword into his hand.
